To conclude a story I first mentioned two months ago: "Girl abandons Caucasian Club effort".

The girl who tried to start a Caucasian Club at her California high school has abandoned the effort and transferred to another school, driven away, her parents say, by the harassment and name-calling she suffered from other students.

Lisa McClelland, 15, left Freedom High School in Oakley and began attending another secondary school in the Liberty Union High School District several weeks ago, said her mother, Debi Neely.

Note the ironic name of the school: Freedom High School, part of the Liberty Untion School District. She did her best, though.
Lisa met with a cool reception from school administrators when she produced a petition with 250 signatures in support of a Caucasian Club in September.

Her principal gave her the go-ahead to move through the chartering process, but she was unable to find a faculty adviser, a requirement for forming a club.

It's a shame that no faculty member had the spine to sponsor her organization.

What? No faculty member has the spine? She was only doing it to prove a point, that Race based clubs were wrong. So, therefore Caucasion clubs are wrong. To better, and with less attitude, prove her point or make an impact, she could have formed an interest or experience based club and anyone could join.

I wouldn't help her form her Caucasion Club, and if I were her parents I would be ashamed. What an attitude! What was she hoping to accomplish with her club? What would they do? Was the formation of the club to simply to prove a point?

If not, and she had a legitimate reason for the club, she should propose a great club based on those needs.

The point would have been better-served if they club were actually created, but instead the student was ostracized and forced out of her school. That she got more than 250 signatures of other students who wanted to join the proposed club illustrates that she wasn't the only one who saw the need; that no faculty member was willing to sponsor a club requested by 250 students is shameful.

Its time whites wake up and quit lifting the majority of minorities ,into positions around them waking up to discover them taking over.When yours are next in line for what you thought is always taken for granted,there is no special feel sorry hand outs because of their white heritage.We better start trying a little self love for our kind before its to late. Our society is eroding quickly with the watering down of our seniority. remember the roman empire?
